Cargojet Announces Renewal of Normal Course Issuer Bid for Voting Shares

MISSISSAUGA, ON, Nov. 11, 2026 /CNW/ -- Cargojet Inc. ("Cargojet" or the "Corporation") (TSX: CJT) today announced that the Toronto Stock Exchange ("TSX") has accepted its notice of intention to proceed with the renewal of its normal course issuer bid ("NCIB") for a portion of its common voting shares and variable voting shares (together, the "Shares").

Normal Course Issuer Bid

The Corporation is renewing the NCIB because it believes that it provides flexibility in respect of its capital allocation strategy to maximize shareholder value, particularly at times when its Shares may trade in a price range that may not fully reflect the underlying value of the Shares. Any purchases made under the NCIB, which will begin on November 16, 2026, and end no later than November 15, 2027, are made by Cargojet subject to favourable market conditions at the prevailing market price at the time of acquisition through the facilities of the TSX and/or alternative Canadian trading systems.

Pursuant to the notice, Cargojet intends to purchase up to 1,400,000 Shares (the "Aggregate Limit"), during the twelve-month period commencing November 16, 2026 and ending November 15, 2027. The Corporation may fulfill such Aggregate Limit by the repurchase of the Shares as appropriate opportunities arise from time to time. The Corporation intends to acquire up to a maximum of 1,400,000 Shares, representing approximately 9.8% of its outstanding public float, being 14,345,492 Shares as at November 2, 2026 (Cargojet had 14,723,588 outstanding Shares as at the same date). Under the NCIB, other than purchases made under block purchase exemptions, Cargojet may purchase up to 25,171 Shares on the TSX during any trading day, which represents approximately 25% of the average daily trading volume of 100,687 Shares (each figure as calculated in accordance with TSX rules). Any Shares purchased under the NCIB will be cancelled.

Under Cargojet's previous NCIB which commenced on November 11, 2025 and expired on November 10, 2026 (the "2025 NCIB"), Cargojet previously sought and received approval from the TSX to repurchase up to 1,400,000 Shares. Cargojet repurchased 372,876 Shares for cancellation under the 2025 NCIB at a weighted average price of approximately $77.44 per Share. All repurchases under the 2025 NCIB were conducted through the facilities of the TSX or alternative Canadian trading systems.

Automatic Share Purchase Plan

In connection with the NCIB, the Corporation entered into an automatic share purchase plan ("ASPP") with a designated broker. Pursuant to the ASPP, the Corporation has instructed the designated broker to make purchases under the NCIB in accordance with the terms of the ASPP. Such purchases will be determined by the designated broker at its sole discretion based on purchasing parameters set by Cargojet in accordance with the rules of the TSX, applicable securities laws and the terms of the ASPP. The ASPP has been pre-cleared by the TSX and will be implemented today. All purchases made under the ASPP will be included in computing the number of Shares purchased under the NCIB.
